Solving 3D tasks at 2D costs
For mid-range 3D applications, balancing accuracy, cost, and complexity has always been a challenge. But what if you could achieve precise 3D vision without breaking the bank – or overengineering your system? A new function for B&R’s standard 2D vision sensor makes it possible to obtain profiles of moving objects using intelligent triangulation algorithms.
